I have worked at a number of jobs where it sometimes required me to use coding. I was not treated like a programmer ever. I was given very old hardware and expected to do my work. The worst computer I had was a Dell machine which had an i3 CPU and 4GB of RAM. Opening VS Code on this machine brought it to it's knees.

I solved this issue by simply using Emacs instead. It uses far less memory, didn't cripple my system, and it is after all my preferred text editing environment for the last few years. I eventually got fed up with Windows bluescreens that I switched to Linux, and then I spent more time fixing other people's older Windows machines than doing my tasks.

Emacs has me sucked in and I don't see myself going anywhere else. Now I'm using Emacs on another old Dell with Linux in another workplace, and it's fantastic to use as always.

Do you have any pictures of the accident site? Just for curiosity sake.

In Factorio design this is simply increasing the buffer size. If the truck-loadings-per-hour don't increase then it's not going to matter how large you make the buffer.

Adding a secondary site for putting containers also seems like it's going to be a new challenge for the logistics company scheduling the rides (I have a friend who deals with train cargo scheduling). Truckers who are used to showing up at the port are now going to have to go to a completely different site altogether, and who knows how many IO issues the new site will also bring in.

Now's the chance for logistics companies to start hiring OpenTTD players.

Probably because they're copying Apple's way of marketing iOS. Flat numbers.

I'm a bit the same. I've been writing Racket for a number of years now and looking back at Lisp I see a lot of ugliness that I don't really think I enjoy.

Racket has a nice package manager and module system that kind of works for me, and the documentation is honestly some of the best I've ever used, if not my favorite. Comparatively, I've tried using GNU Guile and found the online documentation to be horrendous, and trying to find online documentation for what's considered to be the "standard library" in Common Lisp still confuses me.

I love seeing people use CL and other Lisp-likes in the wild, and Norvig was a big inspiration for me.

Agreed. I used to use Firefox Profiles like above comments may mention, but multi-account containers are great and far easier to use than re-launching Firefox instances. Simply click "Re-open this tab in..." while being on the Discord page to open up another account.

According to the article, it seems like it was heavily based off of Apple iMessage zero-click exploits built into some platform. And even a bit of social engineering.

Past that, who knows where they get exploits from? I imagine if they're renting servers with Bitcoins to perform computer attacks, these operatives are probably familiar with darknet sites for trading secrets as well.

Absolutely. I started using Zola after writing my own solution, Zola seemed like the next best step up. It has a lot of good, but it also requires a lot of setup to get going. If you don't care about making your own theme, it's easy to get going and start up a new site, but past that, it's very fast to compile files and comes with image transforms for additional resizing needs.

Ah that's very odd. I'm assuming Chrome/ium works as well or is that a no-go?

What game?
